Strawberries and rhubarb are a power duo in pie; here raw rhubarb plays a tart counter to sweet strawberries.

Cooks' Note

Cooks' note:

Resist the urge to make the salad the night before, or the rhubarb may become too soft.

Recipe information

  • Total Time

    45 minutes

1/4 cup torn fresh mint leaves

Preparation

  1. Step 1
